Help installing MediaWiki (PHP app)

[Dondi]

Hello,

I am a Linux newbie trying to get MediaWiki up and running with LiteSpeed. So far I have completed the following:

1. Set-up a Ubuntu VPS at slicehost
2. Installed PHP, MySQL and LiteSpeed -- verified using respective control/admin pages
3. Used 'sudo apt-get install mediawiki mediawiki-math' to install mediawiki with defaults

The Ubuntu setup also installed Apache 2.2, but I intend to remove it once I get MediaWiki up and running on LiteSpeed.

Now, I am trying to set-up/configure MediaWiki to run on LiteSpeed. However, I am thoroughly confused about how to configure the vhost, script handler, etc. I have spent the last 3 hours searching the forums and wiki but have not found anything that outlines the steps to take. I am not expecting someone to do this all for me, but I am stuck after 3 hours of leg work.

I would really appreciate a brief (or verbose) outline of the required steps to do this.

Thx,

Dondi.

I decided to install MediaWiki over Apache instead of trying to figure out how to set it up initially with LiteSpeed. It's up and running now so I will use Apache to get it setup and going. Hopefully, converting operation from Apache to LiteSpeed will be more straightforward than the initial setup process.

If you are more comfortable with Apache configuration, you can try using Apache configuration directly, instead of converting Apache configuration to LiteSpeed configuration.
It is very simple, just try this:
